Matt, I'll admit that the message was not as clear as it should have been. George Fisher Kornegay married Sara Glisson,dau of Sarah Herring and Daniel Glisson. George Fisher died first. The will in question was made by Sarah (Glisson) Kornegay, Geo Fisher's widow. In Sarah (Glisson ) K.'s will, Sarah A.( Roberts) Kornegay was listed as a daughter. But, she was the widow of John A. Kornegay, son of George Fisher Kornegay and Sarah (Glisson) Kornegay. Whoever wrote the will made an error in distinction. This is not the first time that this has happened, and probably will not be the last time. The cemetery I described, contains the grave of Sarah A. (Roberts). Kornegay, my GGGrandmother, and also of her daughter, Susan Margaret (Kornegay) Cameron,my GGrandmother, who married David (Dave) Cameron. Dave Cameron is buried with their daughter Annie Omelia Cameron Hill, (who married Arthur Martin Hill.),in the family cemetery in Calypso. Duplin Co, NC. Hope this clears things up, and I'm sorry for any confusion. Thanks again for allowing me to clear this up. PS. I checked the land division of her father, John Robert's land, and Sarah was NOT married at that time, so disregard what I said about it proving her marriage. This is recorded in the land division in the court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions ,4 March,1842, Wayne Co.
